Movie Reviews of Bling: A Planet Rock
Movie Review: Don't Blame Hip Hop!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
1st of all I haven't seen this film but I've read a lot of great things about it and I plan to purchase it soon.
Now, I have to say I'm tired of Hip Hop getting the blame for all these issues that have existed before Hip Hop was even mainstream. I mean "BLING" has been around long before Hip Hop, just check any married women's finger HELLO!!!
BLING-BLING has been around years before the song was made by The Hot Boyz.
Liberace was BLINGING way before Hip Hop (LOL!!!)
The term is a reflection of what's been going on ears, fingers and necks for as long as I can remember.
2nd most of these so called rappers don't even own REAL DIAMONDS people so relax! Who you need to be worried about are the Gate's and Trump types who actually have the money to buy all these diamonds.
I hope this movie also addresses the Diamond Companies who pay these African Armies to enslave people to dig these diamonds and kill Tribes to move them off lands where the mines are. These companies should be prosecuted and taking down by the U.S. or U.N. or whoever has the authority to do so.
And last Diamonds aren't the only thing Africans are being enslaved and killed for.
Rwandans are slaughtering one another to corner the market on the colombite-tantalite-laced mud (known as coltan) that keeps your cell phone ringing. (For more on this, see Black Brit artist Steve McQueen's upcoming exhibition Gravesend.)
Peace...
